Definitions
- the Access Channel is used by the mobile station to initiate communication with the base station and to respond to Paging Channel messages.
- collision rates are used in conjunction with multiple Access Channels.
- Paging Channels are used. Page attempts are assigned to the appropriate Paging Channel according to a pre-determined service-to-Paging Channel mapping.
- multiple Paging Channels are used. Page attempts are assigned to the various Paging Channels on the basis of system loading. The highest priority services are assigned dynamically to the least-loaded Paging Channel.
- FIG. 3A is a flow-chart of the steps carried out at a base station for implementing a single Access Channel configuration in the uplink direction where the contention rate is calculated for each service, and services are prioritized with respect to each other.
- FIG. 5 is a schematic representation of a single Paging Channel Configuration in the downlink direction with prioritized services.
- FIG. 10 is a schematic representation of an alternative multiple Paging Channel configuration in the downlink direction with prioritized services.
- the Service to Priority/Queue Mapper 201 determines the priority to be assigned to the page request based on the service requested. The Service to Priority/Queue Mapper then assigns the page request to the appropriate queue.
- the Queuing Controller 301 dequeues the page requests from the queues Q 1 to QN according to a predetermined dequeuing algorithm. Dequeued pages are sent on the single Paging Channel 401 .
- Service to Paging Channel Mapper 101 assigns page requests from groups of services to one of Paging Channels 401 to 40 M. For each Paging Channel, the Service to Priority/Queue Mapper (one of 201 to 20 M) determines the priority to be assigned to the page request based on the service requested. The Service to Priority/Queue Mapper then assigns the page request to the appropriate queue.
- the Queuing Controller (one of 301 to 30 M) dequeues the page requests from the queues QM 1 to QMN according to a predetermined dequeuing algorithm. Dequeued pages are sent on Paging Channels 401 to 40 M.
- the Service to Priority/Queue Mapper 201 and the Queuing Controller 301 can be configured to dynamically change the service-to-queue mappings and/or the dequeuing algorithm based on the current state of queues Q 1 to QN. The current state of the queues is fed back to the Queuing Controller 301 and the Service to Priority/Queue Mapper 301 .
- Such an implementation is depicted in FIG. 8 .
- the Service to Paging Channel Mapper 101 is configured to dynamically assign individual services or groups of services to Paging Channels 401 to 40 M on the basis of the loading of the Paging Channels.
- the loading of each of the Paging Channels is fed back to the Service to Paging Channel Mapper 101 .
- higher priority services may be assigned to the least-loaded Paging Channels.
- FIG. 10 An alternative implementation of the invention using queues and multiple Paging Channels is depicted in FIG. 10 .
- the Service to Priority/Queue Mapper 201 determines the priority to be assigned to the page based on the service requested.
- the Service to Priority/Queue Mapper then assigns the page request to the appropriate queue.
- the Queuing Controller 301 dequeues the page requests from the queues Q 1 to QN according to a predetermined dequeuing algorithm, and sends the pages on Paging Channels 401 to 40 M.
- the dequeued pages may be sent on Paging Channels 401 to 40 M in round-robin fashion.
